Where does the name Altay come from?
ALTAY Main Battle Tank is named after Turkish General Fahrettin ALTAY, the commander of the V. Cavalry Corps who achieved great success during the Turkish War of Independence between 1919 and 1922.
1st pic´s look like a Leo2A4 and second looks like a Leo2A5
Yes but also "ALTAY" is the name of mounts in our father-land in the middle-asia.
If the Abrahams didn't cut it - Why would the Altays ?
Considering both Pakistan and India operates light weight Eastern Armor because of terrain and Altay happens to be in Western Armor categoy with a weight over 65 tons i would say they would utterly fail.
Impossible, First the LeopardA4 doesnt have such a huge scope on its Turret and second has clearly L/55 Barrel.
@cabatli_53 : How good are Altay's in desert conditions ? Because if we use them we'd use them in the sweltering hot & dusty desert plains of Southern Punjab & Northern Sindh Sector - Pakistan's underbelly on the East - Just next door to the Indian state of Rajastan ! Up North - the Fertile Plains of Punjab would make such a heavy tank extremely unsuitable !
@cabatli_53
So they will then move the Leopard 2A4 in the Turkish Army to the East and Replace the M60 ´s with that ? While we have stationed in future enough Altay´s in the Europe Border ?
Maybe if Pakisten buy´s the Altay they call him maybe : Al-Altay
@Armstrong
I have a feeling that the Army will test drive Altay at some stage if the Arjun MK-II production goes ahead.
@cabatli_53
In my opinion, Altay > Leo2A6
